The Next Chapter in Story Development

Legendary Adventures of DWGness

January 31, 2016

Hey Dramatikungfupandas,

Reminder that at the Writers Group this Tuesday, Feb. 2nd, we are reviewing a short outline from Shawn G. for a horror screenplay. If you plan to attend and don't have the material yet, let me know so I can forward it to you. And then be prepared to discuss the project starting at 7:00 p.m. PST at the Write Bros. office in Burbank.

Since the reading is only 4 pages long, if you don't get it in advance and decide at the last moment to come, feel free to do so but try to arrive a few minutes early -- I'll be sure to have a printout available to peruse on the spot.

That's this Tuesday. We have a Users Group next week, then in two weeks (2/19) we'll have a full screenplay to review, which I'll tell you about later. Currently the March meetings, 3/1 & 3/15, are unspoken for, so let me know anytime if you want to submit a project for either of those dates.

One other thing I'd like to mention: A couple of our group members -- Sarah Hohman and Amber Donahue -- have started a new website to showcase the writing of female authors, and they will be soliciting submissions for short stories soon. The site is called UpWriteLadies. Please check it out at:

NOTE TO AOL USERS: If you click on "Contact Sandy" below and fill out the contact form, and you enter an AOL.com address under "Your Email", your inquiry may not get to me. For some strange reason the system this site lives on doesn't get along with AOL. We've been trying to create a workaround, but if you have another email account besides AOL, I suggest using that one for this form. Once you and I establish contact, we can each go back to AOL. Sorry about that.

Writers Group

The Dramatica Writers Group presents authors with an opportunity to receive direct feedback on stories they may be working on. Only one requirement--be willing to offer feedback for other authors as well! We welcome new people and projects.

The Writers Group meetings generally are on the first & third Tuesday of each month, from 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM, though it is recommended that you check the Writers Group notices for any last minute changes in the schedule.
